Subject: "Me Do" Is Spoken My More Than Toddlers

Interesting how the returning soldier thinks owning, having gun practice equips him for a shootout with the crooks. And, using "next time." How about wising up before this time is your last time. Pall Mall ended each show with the warning: 'There are people out there who will pat you on the back with one hand and pick your pocket with the other.' "They" are always ready with "their" game - we are not.

Subject: Cons and Con Men

This show was all about how to avoid cons. Though the methods used by con men have certainly changed, the message is a good one: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Do your due diligence and research before you put any money into any business deal. And beware anyone pressuring you to make decisions before you can complete your research.

Sound advice even for today.
